If this service had thoroughly vanished, we could just ignore the
test until someone gets around to either recreating such a service
or redesigning the test to somehow work locally.  The
`support.transient_internet` mechanism catches the failure to
resolve the domain name, and skips the test.

But in fact the domain snakebite.net does still exist, as do its
nameservers -- and they can be quite slow to reply.  As a result
this test can easily take 20-30s before it gets auto-skipped.

So, skip the test explicitly up front.

_get_socket() already prints a debug message for the host and port.

Implement PyBuffer_SizeFromFormat() function (previously
documented but not implemented): call struct.calcsize().

pymalloc_alloc() now returns directly the pointer, return NULL on
memory allocation error.

allocate_from_new_pool() already uses NULL as marker for "allocation
failed".

* Minor documentation fixes on library/enum

This reverts commit d3dcc927.

Add threading.Thread.__del__() method to ensure that the thread state
lock is removed from the _shutdown_locks list when a thread
completes.

Because mod, func, class, etc all share one namespace, :func:time creates a link to the time module doc page rather than the time.time function.

* Add a minor `Fraction.__hash__` optimization that got lost in the shuffle.

Document the optimizations.

The fact that keyword names are strings is now part of the vectorcall and `METH_FASTCALL` protocols. The biggest concrete change is that `_PyStack_UnpackDict` now checks that and raises `TypeError` if not.

Without indendation, seems like strcpy line is parallel to `if` condition.

Base PR for other PRs that want to play with `type.__call__` such as #13930 and #14589.

The author is really @markshannon I just made the PR.

Replace usage of the obscure PEM_read_bio_X509_AUX with the more standard PEM_read_bio_X509 (GH-15303)



X509_AUX is an odd, note widely used, OpenSSL extension to the X509 file format. This function doesn't actually use any of the extra metadata that it parses, so just use the standard API.

faulthandler now allocates a dedicated stack of SIGSTKSZ*2 bytes,
instead of just SIGSTKSZ bytes. Calling the previous signal handler
in faulthandler signal handler uses more than SIGSTKSZ bytes of stack
memory on some platforms.

FreeBSD implementation of poll(2) restricts the timeout argument to be
either zero, or positive, or equal to INFTIM (-1).

Unless otherwise overridden, socket timeout defaults to -1. This value
is then converted to milliseconds (-1000) and used as argument to the
poll syscall. poll returns EINVAL (22), and the connection fails.

This bug was discovered during the EINTR handling testing, and the
reproduction code can be found in
https://bugs.python.org/issue23618 (see connect_eintr.py,
attached). On GNU/Linux, the example runs as expected.

This change is trivial:
If the supplied timeout value is negative, truncate it to -1.

The documented definition was much broader than the real one:
there are tons of characters with general category "Other",
and we don't (and shouldn't) treat most of them as whitespace.

Rewrite the definition to agree with the comment on
_PyUnicode_IsWhitespace, and with the logic in makeunicodedata.py,
which is what generates that function and so ultimately governs.

Add suitable breadcrumbs so that a reader who wants to pin down
exactly what this definition means (what's a "bidirectional class"
of "B"?) can do so.  The `unicodedata` module documentation is an
appropriate central place for our references to Unicode's own copious
documentation, so point there.

Also add to the isspace() test a thorough check that the
implementation agrees with the intended definition.

Fix the implementation of curses addch(str, color_pair): pass the
color pair to setcchar(), instead of always passing 0 as the color
pair.

Fix the following warning with GCC 4.8.5:
Objects/obmalloc.c: warning: ‘no_sanitize_thread’ attribute directive ignored

Commit b1263d5a causes GCC 9.1.0 to
give a warning in Objects/descrobject.c.

Much like the lower-level logic in commit ef2af1ad, we had
4 copies of this logic, written in a couple of different ways.
They're all implementing the same standard, so write it just once.

> The empty tuple syntax in type annotations, `Tuple[()]`, is not obvious from the examples given in the documentation (I naively expected `Tuple[]` to work); it has been documented in PEP 484 and in mypy, but not in the documentation for the typing module.
